The objectives of the Publisher's Alert Service (PAS) is to announce the availability of educational programs and products to all potential publishers. This report provides the Office of Education with recommendations for improvements to the PAS. It includes: 1) information on the status of current announcements that would normally appear in a monthly Progress Report; 2) a tabulation and summary of publisher responses to the first nine PAS announcements; 3) a summary of the production process and problems of PAS operation during the first nine months; and, 4) recommendations for possible improvements in several aspects of PAS system. The recommendations cover such areas as production schedule, revisions of the Developers Product Data Form, visibility of PAS, ways of getting feedback about successful bids to publishers, and revision of mailing procedures.
